Game-O-Gami has launched a Kickstarter in order to bring a couple new pantheons to their Immortal strategic card game. If they get to their funding goal, they'll be adding Egyptian and Celtic gods to their game. And not just as an expansion pack, they will be putting the new cards into the base game, itself (so the headline might be a bit of a misnomer. It is an expansion, yes, but it's hopefully going to be going into the core game).

They're also coming out with a deck of playing cards where each of the 54 cards in the deck will have the Immortal artwork on it (not just the face cards). Also part of this project is an art book. So if you like the artwork from the game, there's now 3 different ways to look at it (original game, playing cards, and art book).

The campaign is about 1/3 funded with still 14 days to go. It's not the highest of funding goals they're looking for, so they should be able to make it.

Sometimes a first round isn't your best. It's ok. If you pick yourself up, dust yourself off, and go back into the fracas, you've got a good chance of coming out ahead, based on the knowledge you lear

Sometimes a first round isn't your best. It's ok. If you pick yourself up, dust yourself off, and go back into the fracas, you've got a good chance of coming out ahead, based on the knowledge you learned the first time around. Such will hopefully be the case for Game-o-Gami, who has relaunched their Kickstarter campaign for Immortal, their card game of mythological battles.

Modular gameboards create a space where beings of supernatural power from various pantheons (the opening set including: Norse, Greek, Japanese, and Native American) clash in dramatic battles of conquest. Gameplay is a bit like Othello, where placement of your card is extremely important. Along each border of the card is a set of numbers that represent their attack/defense value from that angle. If a new card is placed that beats the stats on one already placed, that old card is captured and joins the other force. So characters can change sides numerous times during the course of the game. But beware of special effects and rules that each character also possesses. A simple numbers game might not propel you to victory in your battle.

As an added bonus, at the start of this new campaign, backers at the $49 pledge level and higher before midnight on June 26th will get an extra free promo card.

Crooked Dice bring four new miniatures to your screen this month! These 28mm Heroic Archetypes are the Action Hero, the Tomorrow Person Stars, and the Crackpot Inventor and Strongarm Co-Stars. Another 8 to follow in due course. We're working on the first 4 Villainous ones as we speak.

Calamity brews in Detroit. Paranormal activity is on the rise. An angry spirit, a dangerous creature, or a pack of desperate cultists hides under every sewer cover and within every abandoned building. Corktown has a secret, though. Its crew of supposed washouts are either psychics or have encountered the paranormal. The officers of Corktown Precinct stand between the city and paranormal onslaught. These damaged, over-worked, and under-paid officers must keep paranormal activity in Detroit under wraps and out of sight. No mean feat in a city as old, large, and haunted as Detroit. Corktown officers face constant threats from mundane crime, paranormal forces, as well as their inner demons and growing madness.

Now that GW has rolled out the second wave of admech miniatures we are happy to announce the release of the Adeptus Mechanicus for 1p40k and 1pKT!

This new army comes with a ton of new weapons and special rules, making for a very interesting adversary on the battlefield. Additionally we are fixing a bunch of minor mistakes and updating some units here and there. Here is the changelog:

1p40k/KT – Added the Adeptus Mechanicus / Skitarii faction

1pKT – Psykers can now have max. 4 power dice

Tyranids – Revised the Mine Launcher and Explosive Head special rules; Updated Biovores to reflect these new changes

Hi, guys. I’m Nick Cirasella, a lifelong sci-fi comic enthusiast. I have been producing web applications and iOS games for several years, so now it is time to branch into the tabletop gaming area. This hobby (aka part-time business) is a great way to express my artistic side, love of gaming, and entrepreneurship all in one :) I invite everyone to come along for the ride!!!

Hey, my name is Philip duBarry. I am the designer of a number of games including Revolution!, Courtier, Skyway Robbery, and Spirits of the Rice Paddy. I live in Cincinnati with my wife and (now) six kids. We play lots of games, of course. We also are into Lego, Minecraft, Star Wars, and most other geeky things. I also serve as the children’s pastor at my church.

Hi there! My name is Darwin Kastle. I am one of the founders of White Wizard Games. I designed the deckbuilding game Star Realms and I am one of the creators of the Epic Card Game now on Kickstarter. I’m also the art director.

Hola! My name is David Sanhueza, I am the founder of the indie game dev studio Game-O-Gami, and the creator of Goblins Drool, Fairies Rule! and Immortal. I am a life-long gamer, and a professional artist and game designer.

From the outside, the building seems no different to countless others in the city of Wardenhale. In fact, if you were to enter the building you would simply find the offices of Dalor and Son: Import & Export Services and be asked to be on your way.

However, if you knew the right people, you'd be shown through the back door and into the real business here - gambling. Patrons wager their livelihoods on the throw of a dice or the turn of a card, and if you are in the mood you can venture downstairs and bet on one of the illegal fights that takes place in the arene down there.

SDGS has released a Nassau Sloop model for Sailpower 2.0. This 15mm small craft is typical of the 6 gun sloop favored by pirates of Nassau. Pirates preferred small sloops for their maneuverability and upwind sailing performance as well as the ability to escape large warships in shallow waters. This sloop model reflects a typical 6-gun sloop with a few pirate upgrades including mount points for swivel rail guns and stern gun ports.

There are new sets in the Battlezones range of 20th Century Brick-themed terrain.

The Battlezones Tile System means that every kit is part of hard plastic and, using an innovative connector system, fully modular.

Three new kits have been added to the range, offering different combinations of ruined and intact tiles to build a convenience store, apartment block or a ruined village. Since the system is modular, you can build just about anything else you can think of too.

These smaller sets are designed to be lighter on the wallet than the big-city kits, and will offer cover and scenery from a variety of genres of games. Mantic have used World War II an Post-Apocalytic as examples.

The new 20th Century Brick battlezones scenery hits retailer shelves at the end of this month.

This week they're looking at the Praesidian Honour Guard:

The primary role of the honour guard is protection. Praesidians of particular renown, such as planetary leaders, will normally be accompanied by a group of 2 or 4 honour guards.

Praesidian Honour Guards usually come from a career military background, and are selected for their formidable skills. Because of their skills, and the role they occupy, the honour guard have access to some of the best equipment in the Republic."

Saturday night's alright for gaming. Well, all of Saturday is alright for gaming, really. At the time this posts, there might or might not be a TPK happening. For my player's sake, hopefully they'll not just "charge at the enemy" as their go-to strategy. But... that's PCs for you.

But that's as may be. In the meantime, we've got a collection of review articles we've collected from the week.

A couple of years ago a friend of mine introduced me to a TV show called Homeland. Let me tell you, that was a wild ride. I’ve never watched a more addictive show in all my life. We binge watched the first two seasons in about 5 days and still wanted more. If you’ve never seen it before, do so. It’s fantastic.

Today we are going to look at Homeland: The Game. Designers Sean Sweigart and Aaron Dill decide to take this show about hidden loyalties, terrorists, and political agendas and bring it to our tabletops. Published by Gale Force 9, who is no strangers to licensed games (Firefly, Spartacus), I really hope they can work their magic this time again. Homeland could either be another great licensed game from Gale Force 9 or a quick way to cash in on some very popular IP. Let’s find out which it is.

Homeland: The Game is a semi-cooperative, hidden loyalty game for 3-6 players that takes about 90 minutes to play. Homeland plays best with 4-5 players.

Oh, those fickle faithless humans. Here you have given them life and breath, bread and hearth. How soon they forget and plod along in their miserable lives. Olympus can no longer suffer such insolence. Zeus demands that it’s time to show the salt of the earth just who to put their faith in once again. And what better way to vent your wrath than with legendary monsters!

Ether Wars is a new concept of board game that seeks to capture the essence of mechanics of highly successful videogames like MOBAS or RTS, and mix them with more typical elements of modern board games.

Ether Wars is a strategy board game, based on extraction and resource management as well as in combat and enemies domination. A game with a high replayability and a large number strategic combinations, where your decisions will depend of each movement of your enemies and environmental events.

If someone asks if you're a god, you say YES!Game-O-Gami is running a Kickstarter campaign for Immortal, their new strategy card game of gods and monsters. It's an interesting mix of games. Placement of your cards is very crucial, since when you play a character, they have different stats based on how they're oriented on the field. Plus, when you attack an enemy and defeat them, they become part of your forces (sort of like Othello, where you'd flip over the other guy's tile to your color). Each card also has special abilities on their card. The abilities aren't spelled out there, though. There's just an icon. That makes it so the game can be easily translated into various languages without having to print new cards each time.

Broken Spirit Wargames has launched a Kickstarter campaign for Immortal, their new fantasy miniatures game set in the Dark Ages. The campaign is to raise funds to print their games' rulebook. There are no specific minis for Immortal, and they recommend you use whatever fantasy miniatures you want to use. Raise your tribe of Romano-Britions, Picts, Irish Raiders, Saxons, Welsh, or Pennines and use the power of the newly-awakened old gods in order to conquer your neighbors. Just be wary, the gods have their own ideas of who should be in charge, and so what they want may not exactly be what you want.

The rulebook will be 120+ pages, hardback bound. The new rules set will have a thematic "Faith" system, letting your warriors do acts of fantastic power. Speaking of which, there will be rules for creating your own hero characters that can lead your clans in battle. Along with that, there will be rules for 5 unique Angels and Demons who have chosen your group as the ones to be their champions of conquest. They'll also include 5 scenarios and plenty of fluff background on the state of affairs in Dark Ages Britain.

The campaign is just a bit over 50% funded with still 12 days left to go on the clock.
